Lyman 25-80 BB

[catmandu]

I have a SC Lyman mould stamped 25-80 BB.

I can't find it in any of the tables or searches.

Looking for a pic and description of what it's used for.

I found one Google reference to a Herters 25-80.

Why would it be a Wadcutter?

Does not look like a 25 caliber! Are you sure those aren't the maching numbers rather than the mold numbers. Look closely, sometimes they are stamped lightly.

Either that..or someone ran a larger cherry in those blocks.

As I look at that picture it appears as if that is a one piece mold/handle, not a removable mold block. That means either it is not an Ideal/Lyman or it is old. The older it is the more likely the mold numbers are worn/filled and hard to find.
